| Power Cord Review I'm going to start this PC nonsense (?) by replacing my Belden 14AWG shielded with the Harm Tech AC11 I just found for sale here, first on my new CDP (Emc-1 MkII).Any results posted? How's the Harmonich? | |
| Wadia, Audio Aero, Meridian, BAT and BOW Badwisdom, Le EMC-1 MkII est icroyablement merveilleux! Comme analogue, toute naturelle, mais tres detaille, avec une basse vraiment profonde! | |
| Symposium Roller Blocks vs Aurious under SACD ... Bluenose: yes, check the archives, esp re shelves and CDP supports, if I recall. You'll find Ken Lyons (producer of Neuance at Greater Ranges) to be enormoously helpful and very technically astute. Lots of good ole R&D behind this product. His... | |
| Symposium Roller Blocks vs Aurious under SACD ... No, but I was so impressed with the improvement in performance of a Neuance shelf under my old Rotel CDP that I'm even getting a larger one for my new EMC-1 MkII.Great coherence without muddiness or treble edginess.Clearly better than cones or air... | |
| Did anyone manage to ``repare'' a buzz, ever? Please...it's "repair". Good luck | |
| Recommendations of best violin recordings performances Hi Bryan. Enjoying your emc-1 mkII? Great, huh?Try Didier Lockwood's Tribute to Stephane Grapelli, on SONY/FRANCE (I forget what the NA label is).Phenomenal violin harmonics and stand-up by Nils Orsted-Pedersen with Lagrene on acoustic guitar. Thi... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MkII: XLR better?? Thanks, Kelly.Have Discovery Essence XLRs arriving soon, thanks to a fellow A'goner. Think I'm finally ready to turn the TV off and listen to some music. What a frightening and bewildering week. Ern | |
| Buying Hi-End CD Player or Transport.. You may wish to include the new Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MkII with 24/192 DAC in your comparisons. I'm becoming quite enthralled as mine burns in. Good luck. | |
| EMC-1 vs. Levinson 360s/Sony SCD-1 Avnut, It is my understanding that the 830/850/860 Wadias used a filter algorithm that rolled the top about -1 dB at 10k, and -3dB at 20kHz. Perhaps no bad thing for many systems and recordings. But with 49 yr old ears I need all the help I can ge... | |
| EMC-1 vs. Levinson 360s/Sony SCD-1 Just got my new EMC-1 MkII up and running, and cannot believe the improvement in bass dynamics and total lack of digital grain! Too smooth? I dunno...the clarity and detail is NOT compromised...just sounds wonderfully natural.(Just read a European... | |
| Verity Audio Opinions I've owned my Parsifal Encores a little over a year, and continue to be profoundly impressed. My 7' triangle nearfield setup in a 14x18x8 room required front-firing woofers, so an extensive audition with the rear-firing Fidelios was NOT successful... | |
| Tweeter absolutely silent. What could be the reason? Easier to check for an open voice-coil by touching a 1.5v battery to the terminals and listening for scratchy sounds.Tweeters are pretty go-nogo devices. Their sensitivities unfortunately vary dramatically within most production schemes, so don't ... | |
| Headphones Although I had initially liked my old Staxes a lot, I sold them last year for $200 as I found I hadn't listened to them for years.A recording engineer suggested that their uptilted response was great for hyperdetailed recording mixes, but way too ... | |
| PC needed for EMC-1 Mk II CDP PSI forgot to add that the PC must be VERY flexible, as it has to turn a 90 in only a couple of inches; so the Harm Tech, for example, is too stiff to work. Thanks again, guys. Ernie | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MkII arrives soon Dekay: Where do I find the Absolute? Is it very flexible?It's new to me. Thanks.Sc53: Thought about the HT IC and PC, but won't have the rear clearance to use either. May have to use my ultra-flexible Red Dawn, and a soft PC as well.... The upgrad... |
